Romantic Proposal Stories

25 years ago my
husband, Quentin, and I were sitting in a little cafe in
Brooklyn waiting for the check to come. He was 26 years old and I was
22, so
young and wet behind the ears and excited about the future...

Carrie and Tom met a few years ago through a mutual friend. They hit it off right away and have been together ever since. He had been preparing for the proposal day for several weeks and when the big day came, he was definitely ready. Tom took the time to write short notes relating to experiences he shared with Carrie. He blew up several balloons, with the cards inside ensuring his bride-to-be would have to pop each balloon to find out what was next.

My fiancé Ben and I met through an online dating service
around Christmas
time of last year, hit it off straight away and very quickly moved in
together.
He proposed to me only two days ago, at Christmas Eve and the way in
which he
did so was really unique.

I always wanted to get married, but my boyfriend of 6 years didn't really believe in it. I knew I loved him enough that marriage didn't really matter to me. What mattered was that we were together. But sometimes people change their minds and in turn, change your world.

If I heard this story from anybody else I would think they were making
it up. In fact if I saw this happen in a movie I would probably say the
script
is terrible because it lacks credibility.But they say reality is often stranger than fiction. Well now I
know for
a fact that's true.

I
woke up feeling bad that I hadn't planned anything for our anniversary
and Troy
was like, "Yeah, we're so lazy… Let's at least go for a romantic walk in
the park and see where to go from there". So off we went and I seriously
wasn't expecting a thing...
